Public bug reported: When using Aero Snap (sorry, I don't know the official terminology for Unity, this is the effect that happens when you move a window to the sides or the top of the screen), I now get a horrendous goldish-yellow color instead of the soft orange I used to get in Ubuntu Natty. This color is painfully bright, to the point that it washes out everything below it. I actually find myself looking away from the monitor when moving a window to the sides, it's that bright. See the attached screenshot!
This happens regardless of the graphics hardware or drivers (tested on radeon, fgrlx, nouveau and nvidia) so it's apparently some misconfiguration. It's obviously much worse on larger/brighter monitors (esp. when using "movie" settings to watch a movie and you try to drag- maximize the movie window). Any ideas?
